This personal information, is it something you previously entered on CodeProject, either through an older account, older user name, or on the forums themselves? (and is it just first name? first and last?)

Thanks,

So your personal name was (and hence is) public knowledge.

The point here is that you've come to us with some serious accusations and are asking us to take action. "Annoying someone one the internet" is not something I would consider a misdemeanour.

If you have a specific instance where our action is required then we'll certainly take a look.

If you guys are simply continuing a spat that seems to have boiled over and out of the Soapbox then my advice is

1. Don't go into the Soapbox, or
2. Ignore him.

cheers

OK. We'll take a look and review what's been happening (though Sean has been keeping tabs too) and come up with some options to calm your life a little.

I've spent some time reading the history of these interactions and Chris and I have been discussing possible solutions.

Then I saw this interaction in the Lounge:

CodeProject is meant to be a resource to help developers and we're trying to make a community dedicated to that. These kinds of responses do not foster community, but hurt it as they encourage members to respond similarly. Due to the many warnings I've given you about your behaviour in the past (and going back and reading your older forum entries) I think it best to de-activate your account permanently.

Thanks,

Ignore it. Do what I did: add a rule to your email system that automatically discards (or at least treats as spam) anything from him. I have a "brute force and ignorance" outlook / live mail rule:

If message body contains "username of bad guy" and "has posted a" move it to the specified folder

It's primitive, but effective - I get nothing from him, so I'm not wound up, and I'm not even tempted to reply. I'm pretty sure he's stopped posting, but I can't be bothered to check...

When they don't get the response they want they give up, generally.

Here is him attempting to insult my physical features:

It was a humorous article about global warming, of all things, threatening red heads. How does that insult you in any way?

There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Ryan,

Could you do us the courtesy for the moment of letting N_tro_P have his say and then, if warranted, we'll have a chat with you and N_tro_P in private.

I went a few rounds with him last year. Dude is hardcore religious and doesn't accept anything you offer up against his views but it never got to what your describing. Well, other than him calling me a troll and ending the discussion. I just smiled as he played that final card I expected him to play.

That's exactly how I know him as well. I wish him best of luck to find anything he can use in other places, but that should keep him busy a little.

He tried that with me as well. First he tries to provoke, then he starts calling names (like 'hater') and if you tell him to go climb a tree, he will call you a troll.

The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.
